| The Language Policy Web Site generates a
substantial amount of comment, most of it intelligent
and gratifying. Your webmaster greatly appreciates (but is far too modest
to publish) messages that could be called fan mail. I also hear from plenty
of skeptics whose civil comments deserve, and usually receive, a response.
Then there's the hate mail: a small minority of messages that are offensive,
tedious, and predictable. These go straight to the Recycle Bin. Finally,
I receive a few criticisms that – despite their hostility – raise issues
of significance and thus engage me in debate. This page is devoted to such
exchanges that may be of interest to readers.
